Spring Migration is Underway!
After what seemed to be a long, draw-out winter, the birds are finally on the move. Since April 16, we have been back to banding six days a week, and are already starting to capture some early migrants. Follow our totals for new birds banded here to see what we are catching each day of the season. Also, for an interesting look at the movement of the birds, check out the migration radar links from Ohio State University. Refer to our Fall 2012 highlights page to learn how to interpret these maps.
Throughout the season, be sure to follow us on Facebook for timely updates on what interesting birds we are catching this Spring. Enjoy the birds!
